Abstract:
Fusion-formable sodium-containing aluminosilicate and boroaluminosilicate glasses are described. The glasses are particularly useful for controlled release of sodium—useful in semiconductor applications, such as thin film photovoltaics where the sodium required to optimize cell efficiency is to be derived from the substrate glass.
Abstract:
Intermediate to high CTE glass compositions and laminates formed from the same are described. The glasses described herein have properties, such as liquidus viscosity or liquidus temperature, which make them particularly well suited for use in fusion forming processes, such as the fusion down draw process and/or the fusion lamination process. Further, the glass composition may be used in a laminated glass article, such as a laminated glass article formed by a fusion laminate process, to provide strengthened laminates via clad compression as a result of CTE mismatch between the core glass and clad glass.
Abstract:
Described herein are alkali-free, boroalumino silicate glasses exhibiting desirable physical and chemical properties for use as substrates in flat panel display devices, such as, active matrix liquid crystal displays (AMLCDs) and active matrix organic light emitting diode displays (AMOLEDs). In accordance with certain of its aspects, the glasses possess excellent compaction and stress relaxation properties.

Abstract:
Deadfront articles that include a tactile element formed on a first surface of a substrate and a visual element disposed on a second surface of the substrate opposite the first surface. The tactile element is positioned on the first surface of the substrate in a complimentary fashion to the visual element disposed on the second surface of the substrate. The tactile element may include a surface roughness portion having a surface roughness different than the surface roughness of an area bordering the surface roughness portion. The deadfront articles may be incorporated into an automobile interior to provide a visual and haptic display interface for a user.
Abstract:
A tinted glass composition and glass article including the same, the composition including: about 45 mol % to about 80 mol % SiO2; about 6 mol % to about 22 mol % Al2O3; 0 mol % to about 25 mol % B2O3; about 7 mol % to about 25 mol % of at least one alkaline earth oxide selected from MgO, CaO, SrO, BaO, and combinations thereof, about 0.5 mol % to about 20 mol % CuO; 0 mol % to about 6 mol % SnO2, SnO, or a combination thereof, 0 mol % to about 1.0 mol % C; 0 mol % to about 5 mol % La2O3; and 0 mol % to about 10 mol % PbO, and that is substantially free of alkali metal.
Abstract:
The disclosure relates to highly temperable colored glass compositions. The colored glass compositions have high coefficients of thermal expansion and high Young's moduli that advantageously absorb in the ultraviolet and/or blue wavelength ranges. Methods of making such glasses are also provided.
